Easily one of the most infamous moments from the last 20 years in the NHL!
On November 12th, 2011, Buffalo Sabres goaltender Ryan Miller got railroaded by Milan Lucic of the Boston Bruins. It just so happens the two teams will meet exactly eleven years to the day.
As Lucic blocked a shot, he sprung himself for a partial break, but the puck got too far ahead of his reach. As Miller comes out to play it away from the on-rushing forward, Lucic drops his shoulder and catches the goaltender with a massive hit.
Looch claimed that the collision was unintentional, but we all know that's not the truth! And who could forget Miller's quote from after the game:
''I stuck around because I just wanted to say what a piece of s**t I think Lucic is...50 pounds on me and runs me like that? It's unbelievable ... gutless. Gutless...piece of s**t.''
Times have changed, of course, Lucic is now with the Calgary Flames and Ryan Miller recently retired, but this was a moment that will live on in NHL history for many more years.
